All this talk about snowtroopers has got me itchin' to tackle this costume. It looks to be fairly hassle-free, there are just some details to contend with. Again, if anybody has higher resolution pics, please share! I got these from http://www.studiocreations.com/howto/snowtrooper/snowt_refpicts.html
and if you are here and want me to take them down, please let me know.
So let's study this guy. I've tinked around with the contrast and whatnot to try and give a clearer picture of the suit. I've also circled things that I have noticed.
First off, the boots. Almost 100% sure these are the same as the AT-AT pilot boots. Maybe even the exact same pair we have seen in other pictures of the AT-AT pilot.
1. The forearm armor parts are TK forearms. Here you can see the squarish indents in the side.
1. The same small dimple you see on the snowtrooper helmets. As MonCal said, could be a brass binding post.
2. Two red and two blue LED caps?
3. Appears to be same chest, ab, and cod armor as snowtrooper with slightly different details.
4. Again the TK forearms. Here you can see the strips.
5. Commander carries a gun in a white holster. Any idea which gun?
6. Overlap of duster which is pristine, not weathered like ordinary snowtroopers. I'm also guessing he's sporting a nylon belt?
1. Probably the same, ribbed shoulder connectors with screw or post connecting it to the armor.
2. Same snowtrooper shoulder bells that appear to be sewn to the duster. These look awfully 'flat' to me for some reason.
3. Is this the same TK thermal detonator?
The gloves could be the same that were worn by the AT-AT pilots you see on-screen. I have these which could be a good match once the handguards are in place.
I took a quick pic of what I have. Looks like the gauntlet needs to be cut down some.
